Revival again;
Reading about the M2 "Peformance Edition"
Less for more with no real advantage

I thought it came with the M Drivers packs (with top speed de-limiter) and a load of extra M performance bits like stiffer suspension, exhaust etc for a relatively small premium?

Maybe I am messing something up, maybe it is not the PE but another.
That one - Instead of "4Zone climate control" it now comes with "1Zone" to "reduce weight"

Utter utter bks!

Have you any idea how much a zone weighs?
Not having to drag 3 zones round with you must be worth double digit seconds on a hot Nürburgring lap.

No. Enlighten me.

Or I am in need of a whoosh parrot?

Pop/bang remaps.

Had a tt sat outside the office last week (Redcliff St ped crossing onto Mary Redcliff roundabout, Bristol) ramping it until rather a lot of people were pointing and laughing at the windows.

Sounded like Mosul just after lunchtime. Was actually a small-engined blue-badged rotbox.

Having recently moved into an office on that roundabout, there seems to be a lot of pop and bang maps going past. Must be the acoustics encouraging such behaviour

Huge, ugly grilles

I have one of those ( the car) and I’m a fan of the aesthetics (non biased, I bought it because I was a fan)

Mine is black and non F Sport so it is a bit more subtle

EV cars. In principle really great ideas and i love the thought of them. But dear god why do they have to come with so much smugness. As well as the use of ICE ever other word when bestowing the virtues of an EV life.

Gaping bumper grilles:





Why?

I see the W213 E63 has a pair of intercoolers, but a D3 A8 4.2 TDI used two intercoolers and had a restrained lower bumper:


The R35 GT-R puts out similar power to the W213 E63 and yet its bumper is (reasonably) restrained:

I agree. It's ghastly.
